• TAX COLLECTOR — PAYMENT OF TAXES UPDATE

  Dear Tullytown Residents,

  This update is to inform you that the first school tax bill you received in early July 2020 had some errors on the bill when printed. The Homestead Act and Farmstead Act amounts were incorrect, which caused the wrong amounts due to appear on your bill.

  YOU WILL ALL BE RECEIVING A NEW SCHOOL TAX BILL THAT  IS TO BE USED TO SUBMIT YOUR 2020 SCHOOL TAX PAYMENTS. IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SUBMITTED PAYMENT BASED ON THE ORIGINAL SCHOOL BILL RECEIVED I WILL BE SENDING THOSE CHECKS BACK TO YOU.

  If you have any questions, contact Michael Sidoti (Tullytown Tax Collector) at 215-547-8574 Monday thru Thursday 10 am – 3 pm.

  All 2020 Real Estate FACE period payments have been extended from June 30, 2020 until July 30, 2020. If your taxes are received after July 30, then the penalty amount will apply and will be due by December 31, 2020. On January 1, 2021 liens will be filed against all unpaid taxes.

  A black mailbox has been installed outside the Borough Hall main doors for you to be able to drop off all tax payments or they can be mailed in. We are still not accepting any payments in person due to the Covid-19 virus.

  The deadline for the filing of any current mercantile and/or business privilege tax return, and the date for the payment of such taxes, shall be delayed from April 30, 2020 to July 15, 2020.  The penalties for any return and taxes due but not made by such extended date shall for begin to accrue on July 16, 2020.
